Life just the way I want to live it
even if it means
shooting out words
that no one else would say
because I’m me
and
I am wild
like the lions on the savannah
searching for food
that truly the cheetahs
have killed
but I’ll take it
if it means surviving
Life just the way I want to live it
even if it means
shooting out words
that everyone else wants to say
but won’t
I will because
I am wild
and no one can tame
the fire in my soul,
no one can bury this burden
of yearning that I hold,
so I must dig it out myself,
I must be myself.

love the imagery of “shooting our words” and being wild —- the concept of being free, and just being….alive. bkm
some wicked cool imagery…i agree…the lion steeling the cheetahs food…i like that…
These words are for me like looking into a mirror. It is said that the female lion roars less but is more fierce. Thanks for allowing me to hear my silent roar through your words.
